Negroes and Negro Slavery: The First on Inferior Race, The Latter Its Normal Condition is a controversial book written by John H. Van Evrie in the mid-19th century. The book argues that Black people are inherently inferior to White people and that slavery is a natural and necessary state for them. Van Evrie uses pseudoscientific theories to support his claims, including the idea that Black people have smaller brains and are therefore less intelligent than White people. The book also defends the institution of slavery, arguing that it is a humane and beneficial system for both slaves and slave owners. The book was widely criticized at the time of its publication and is now considered a prime example of racist and pro-slavery propaganda.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
